This weekend my son turns ten-years-old.
I can’t believe it.
I am officially one of those old mothers who crows, “It goes by so fast!” and “He’ll always be my baby!”
In honour of his tenth birthday, I present ten things I love about my ten-year-old son, Noah
1. He’s sensitive, creative and extremely imaginative. He loves to build and draw and create.
2. He has the loveliest dark brown hair. When it’s time for a trim the hair at the back starts to curl. no one really knows where the waves came from but my hubby and I both take the credit.
3. He’s better at building lego then I ever will be. Seriously, those instruction books must be written in Klingon or elvish.
4. He can be so kind to his little sisters. (Notice I wrote “can be”!)
5. He has no fear of chatting with adults. He freely converses with any adult he meets: sales clerks,teachers, neighbors, etc. especially those with newborn babies. (that is my fault)
6. He is passionate about all things Disney including the origins of Mickey Mouse and video games. He knows more about Walt Disney then I do after three trips to Disneyland.
7. He has professed his belief in God and Jesus and is worried about some of his friends.
8. He thinks about other people and has a heart for those in need.
9. He made me a mom to a son.
10. He’s my son, a gift from God, and everything he is supposed to be!
Happy birthday, Noah!
I love you!
Happy Birthday to your son. These are ten great things to love about him.
That was really so nice! They do grow up so fast! Mine are grown and flown, in no time it seemed!
10 sounds fun. My oldest will be 5 tomorrow.
That is so sweet. My son just turned 10 on the 12th and today is my other son’s birthday, and he’s now 14. I can’t believe how time has flown. Happy 10th birthday to yours.
Aw, this hits home because my son just turned 5. I just can’t even believe how far away that tiny baby I had seems, but it’s SO much fun getting to know him more each day!
That’s a good list. It’s touching that he’s thinking of his friends’ salvation when he’s so young. And I love that you put on the list, ‘He’s everything he’s supposed to be.’ Perfect. 🙂
Sounds like you’re doing a great job raising him mama!
Awe so sweet! What a sweet mama you are! Sounds like you have a sweet son.
This is so sweet! *tears*
That’s a super fun age. I wish him a happy birthday!
I need to make a list like this for when my 11 year old has me at a wits end.
Aw, happy birthday to your son. He’s double digits now!
Great post. Happy Birthday to your reason to smile.,
It does go by FAST and they will always be your baby. I swear each year I get older the faster the year goes by.
I love this! I think I might borrow your idea for my daughter’s birthdays and present them with my own list! This is very sweet! I love #3 and #4!
Happy Birthday to your son. Time sure does fly.
This is sooo sweet and reminds me a lot of my 11 year old son! Happy Birthday to your sweet boy!
Happy birthday to your son! My nephew is ten right now, and it’s such a special age!
My son is 10, too! It’s a really fun age isn’t it?
It is! He is super excited about being in the double digits now and almost a “tween”.
Not ready for that!!
